One important guideline of special occasion speaking is to use humor appropriately.

Read the excerpt below from act 1.2 of The Tragedy of Julius Caesar and answer the question that follows. CASSIUS: Brutus, I do

Alja [10]

This question is incomplete, missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

CASSIUS:

Brutus, I do observe you now of late.

I have not from your eyes that gentleness

And show of love as I was wont to have.

You bear too stubborn and too strange a hand

Over your friend that loves you.

Which statement summarizes this excerpt best?

A.Cassius has recently become angrier with Brutus and is not willing to be the loving brother-in-law and friend he has always been.

B.Cassius has noticed that lately Brutus seems to be angry with him instead of being the loving brother-in-law and friend he has always been.

C.Brutus has noticed that Cassius seems to be angry with him, but Cassius denies that his feelings for Brutus have changed.

D.Cassius is trying to convince Brutus that they are better friends than they really are in an effort to get closer to Caesar.

Answer:

The best summary for the excerpt is:

B.Cassius has noticed that lately Brutus seems to be angry with him instead of being the loving brother-in-law and friend he has always been.

Explanation:

Brutus, I do observe you now of late.

I have not from your eyes that gentleness

And show of love as I was wont to have.

The lines above mean Cassius has been watching Brutus's behavior. He has noticed that, lately, Brutus is not gentle and loving towards him. Brutus's behavior has clearly changed.

You bear too stubborn and too strange a hand

Over your friend that loves you.

Brutus seems angry, impatient, even stubborn when dealing with Cassius. Before, he used to be more willing to listen and yield; he used to be easier to deal with. He is no longer the friend and brother-in-law he used to be.

Masteriza [31]

Based on the excerpt given above from John Steinbeck's "Symptoms," how the author increases the emotional power of his essay is by describing the physical effects of war, such as “thick and insensitive” skin and “salty taste” in the mouth. These graphic descriptions in the present tense attempt to show the gruesome reality of war to readers. And also, using the pronoun you while describing the horrific experiences of the soldiers. In this way, he makes the soldiers’ suffering more relatable to his audience. The answers would be 1 and 4.
